SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters iPatent No. 527,898, dated October 23, 1894.

Application filed February 21. 1894- Serial 500,951. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I,IsAAo STRIPE, a citizenof the United States, residing at Aultman, in the county of Stark and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvemonts in Portable Ovens; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and

exact description of the same, reference be ing had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, in whichi Figure 1, is a longitudinal section. Fig. 2 is a top view. Fig. 3, is a transverse section,

through line ocw, looking from the top or upper end of the oven. Fig. 4, is adetached view of the heat regulating plates. Fig. 5 is a detached view of the heat regulating handle and its bracket. Fig. 6, is a detached view of one of the tray supports.

The present invention has relation to portable ovens, and it consists in the different parts and combination of parts hereinafter described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.

In the accompanyingdrawings A represents the body or shell of the oven proper, and is preferably cylindricalin form.

For the purpose of transporting the oven from place to place, it is placed upon the wheels at, substantially as illustrated in Fig.

. 1. The bottom b is formed of heavy sheet metal, below which is located the furnace B, which may be of any desired style, and should be provided with an ordinary grated bottom. The top or upper side of the bottomBis provided with the socket c, which socket is for the purpose of receiving, and journaling the bottom or lower end of the shaft 0, which shaft extends upward and is extended a shortdistance past and beyond the top or upper end of the oven proper, substantially as illustrated in Fig. 1. To the shaft 0 are securely attached the tray supports D, which supports are formed, substantially as illustrated in Fig. 6, said tray supports being for the purpose of supporting and holding the trays E.

In thedrawings three trays are shown located within the oven proper; but it will be understood that a greater or less number may i be placed within the oven without departing from the nature of my invention. For the purpose of allowing heat to pass the trays E, said trays are formed somewhat smaller in diameter than the inner diameter of the body Qrshell A. Another object of so forming the trays is to allow them to rotate freely. To the body or shell A is securely attached the perforated plate F, which plate is located substantially as illustrated in Fig. 1.. Upon the top or upper side of the perforated plate F is located the perforated disk G, which perforated disk is provided with the operating handle orbard, which handle or bar extends a short distance through the body of the oven, as illustrated in Fig. 1. When it is desired to have the heat pass up through the plate F, and the disk G, the apertures e, are adjusted so as to register with each other, which object is accomplished by rotating the disk G,

so as to cause the apertures to be opened; or in other words, to come in line with each other; and when it is desired to cut 0% the heat from above the plate F, and the disk G, the disk G, is rotated until the apertures are closed; which object is accomplished by bringing the solid portion of the disk G, over and above the apertures e. For the purpose of holding the disk G, at the desired point of adjustment, the bracket H, is provided, which bracket is attached to the body or shell A, in any convenientand well known manner,andis provided with shallow notches or recesses f, which shallow notches or recesses, receive and hold the pin g. It will be understood that the apertures 9, formed in the plate F, and the disk G, should be somewhat larger in diameter than the diameter of the shaft 0, thereby permitting said shaft 0 to revolve independent of the plate F, and the disk G.

For the purpose of providing a means for regulating the heat, the pipes I and J are provided. The pipes I, loading from the inner part of the oven, to the escape pipe J, and may be located substantially as illustrated in Fig. 1. The pipes I, are each provided with the dampers K, which dampers are for the purpose of regulating the escape of the heated air contained in the oven.

For the purpose of providing a means for rotating the trays E, the top or upper end of the shaft 0, is provided with the bent or curved arms h, which bent or curved arms are provided at their bottom or lower ends with the ring or band h.

For the purpose of providing a means for placing articles designed to be baked, within the oven, the doors such as L are provided. In the drawings three doors are shown; but it will be understood that one large door may take the place of the th ree doors shown without departing from the nature of my invention.

It will be understood that the body or shell A, should be formed either of heavy metal or may be formed of two sheets of metal, set a a. The top or upper end of the body or shell A, is provided with the coveror top M, which cover or top is attached in any convenient and well known manner, and is preferably formed flat, as illustrated in Figl 1.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is o 1. The combination of the body or shell A, the furnace B, the shaft 0, having fixed thereto the tray supports D, the trays E, the

perforated plate F, fixed to the body A the perforated disk G, provided with an operat 3 5 ing handle, the pipes I, and J, provided with dampers, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

2. The combination of the body or shell A,thefurnace B the shaft 0, the trays E, the 40 perforated plate F, fixed to the body A, the disk G, provided with the handle (1, the bracket H, provided with the notches f, the pin g, fixed to the handle d, the arms h, fixed to the top or upper end of the shaft 0, the ring or 45 band It, the pipes I and J, and the chimney B, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

In testimonythat I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence 50 of two witnesses.

ISAAC STRIPE.
